Potatoes USA presents
An Evening With Chef Emmanuel Stroobant and U.S. Potatoes, an exclusive cooking
demo session by the celebrity 2-Star Michelin chef at The Pavilion, Shangri-La
Tanjung Aru Resort. Invited guests had an enjoyable session watching the chef
in action and trying out his scrumptious US Potatoes dishes. Also present was
Indra Balaratnam, Consultant Dietitian and Founder & Owner of Indra
Balaratnam Nutrition who gave a talk on the nutritional benefits of US
Potatoes.
Hailing from Belgium, Chef Emmanuel Stroobant’s career
began at a tender age of 16 with the cleaning of dishes in one of his country’s
best restaurants. At 23, he opened his first restaurant in his hometown, Liege.
After travelling the world, he made a life-changing
decision by heading to Asia. His maiden stop was to Kuala Lumpur in late 1997
and was awarded the ‘1999 Best Expatriate Chef’ by World
Asia Media. In that same year Stroobant and his wife Edina moved to Singapore
to yet again experience another unchartered episode. Their first restaurant,
Saint Pierre became the only Singapore member of the world-renowned Relais
& Châteaux, the prestigious association of the world’s finest hotels and
restaurants; and has been awarded 1 Michelin star by the second edition of
Michelin Guide Singapore in 2017.
Chef Emmanuel loves working with U.S. Potatoes because
of the quality and versatility of the product.
He demonstrated 4 exciting recipes using U.S. potatoes that are sure to
excite your guests when you serve them during the coming Christmas and New Year
parties.
Chef Emmanuel loves working with potatoes as
they are a staple in nearly every cultural cuisine, so they’re uniquely suited
to deliver today’s most craved global flavors. Whether you’re looking for a
comforting classic or a new contemporary cuisine, with U.S. potatoes, the
possibilities are endless. Available in many varieties and formats, U.S. potatoes
are always ready to elevate any dish with amazing taste and texture.

US.
Indra
shared with us the fact that potatoes are actually very nutritious. Potatoes are
naturally fat free, cholesterol free, and low in sodium. In addition, potatoes
are an excellent source of vitamin C, and those eaten with the skin are a good
source of potassium. Foods that are good
sources of potassium and low in sodium, such as potatoes, may reduce the risk
of high blood pressure and stroke.
Ms Indra also shared that although many people these days are
worried about their carbohydrate intake, carbohydrates
are one of the key nutrients in performance nutrition. Athletes engaged in high volume and high
intensity training require adequate amounts of carbohydrates for energy. U.S. potatoes are an example of an excellent
source of carbohydrates. They are rich in vitamin B6 and C, potassium, folate,
fibre and antioxidants. “They are extremely versatile and filling, making it a
convenient source for athletes” she elaborated.
Organizer Potatoes USA is the marketing organization
for the 2,500 commercial potato growers operating in the United States. They
promote five main good quality potato products: fresh table-stock potatoes,
fresh chipping potatoes, seed potatoes, frozen potato products and dehydrated
potato products.
The night ended with a lucky draw with prizes
sponsored by Shangri-La Tanjung Aru followed by a meet & greet session with
Chef
Emmanuel Stroobant.
